Is Flatbed Reliable for Home Weekly?

Without question. When I ran flatbed, shippers were pretty much Mon-Fri 8 to 5 type of schedule. If you're down south or midwest, you'll definitely be able to find a flatbed company in which you're home weekly.

 

If you are in Southern MS -- you should probably check out Jordan Carriers (if you haven't, already):

Jordan Carriers -- Natchez, MS

The bad news there: you will in all likelihood have to (finally) tell them your zip code....

Jordan Carriers website, under listed benefits, it sez:

"Home most weekends"

This of course assumes you use/keep the same zip code....

Each job is its own world.

 

For 10 years I ran regional pulling flatbed. I was maybe gone over a weekend a handful of times in those years. Depending on which way we were headed we’d be done Friday around mid-day and have to leave Sunday or done Friday night and leave Monday morning.

 

Don't forget/overlook Decker up in B'ham:

Decker Truck Lines -- Bessemer, AL

They're pretty nosey also, from what I hear....they will want that zip code, too....
